iver uns Through it' can be easily described as a masterpiece because it has all the right elements needed to qualify for the title. It has some very powerful themes, a sound storyline, a realistic but sensitive perspective and on top of everything, some truly magnificent characters. While discussing the book, one can often get lost into a myriad of themes that have been woven into this autobiographical text and for this reason, it is important to see book from the standpoint that the reader can relate to. In other words, the book has something to offer to everyone from those who strongly believe in religion and natural force to those who maintain a secular stance on issues. However the one theme that easily dominates the rest is that of art and the role it plays in one's life. This theme is however combined with fly-fishing that more or…...

River Runs Through it and "A River Runs through It"
Norman Maclean's book vs. The Redford movie -- An illustration of the limits of the visual media of film to transmute the philosophical media of prose

The movie isn't as good as the book." This phrase has become a truism about almost every filmed depiction of a novel, particularly if Hollywood is responsible for the production. However, in the case of director Robert Redford's film of the Norman Maclean novella A River Runs Through It, a more fair critique of Redford's effort might be that the film is inevitably different, not necessarily better. Redford took an intensely introverted, philosophical book, highly dependant upon internal as well as external character development and attempted to render it into the visual media of film.

It must be universally acknowledged that films and books will always differ in their artistic nature to one another. A critic must…...

Some scientists believe a proposed cleanup by GE of the sediment of the river could re-spread pollution, killing or harming thousands of the existing Hudson population. Further, with an increase in mortality due to commercial fishing, the population of striped bass could rapidly decline. More research, increased recruitment efforts, and continued efforts to keep pollution levels low in the Hudson are needed to maintain the current levels of striped bass. Without careful consideration, the efforts of the last decades that have adequately saved the striped bass in the Hudson River could be destroyed.

Within seconds Laura caught a flash of muted hues through the tree trucks. As the crackling sounds drew nearer, she now caught sight of his whole stature, darting in and out amongst the trees. It was definitely Curtis Jones' corduroy jacket, walking just beyond the tree line, clothed in fatigues, hunting boots, rifle slung over his right shoulder. He stared straight ahead, never once glancing her way. Laura allowed her eyes to follow him until the hues blended into the darkness down river.
She then shifted her eyes to the left again, the same direction in which she had searched out the echo of the steps, allowing herself to inhale the last of the dusk's offering before climbing the hill to home, and there it was. How had she missed it only moments before? But upon refection, she realized her eyes had been seeking the source of the steps inside…...

Essay Topic Examples
1. The Use of Color as Symbolism in Film:
    This essay will delve into how filmmakers use color to convey themes, emotions, and character traits. It will explore examples like the prevalent green in "The Matrix" signifying the artificiality of the virtual world, the red coat in "Schindler's List" as a symbol of innocence among chaos, and the contrasting palettes in "Amlie" to accentuate the protagonist's whimsical experiences versus the drab reality of others.

2. Architectural Symbolism in Cinema:
    The focus of this essay would be on how architecture in film settings contributes to symbolic meaning. It could examine how the Bates' mansion in "sycho" represents Norman Bates' psyche, the use of the Overlook Hotel in "The Shining" as a character in itself, or the significance of the dilapidated buildings in "Children of Men" as representations of a crumbling society.

3. The Evolution of Animal Symbolism in Film:

However, during the little more than 10 years of this research line, contradictory results have been found (Brynjolfsson, Hitt, & Yang, 2002). From the 1970s to 1980s, those companies that invested more in IT suffered a relative setback in the work factor productivity indexes. This paper will discuss the relationship between IT and competitive advantage in following content. We believe that IT is necessary to improve competitive position of the organization.
Many business professionals point to the use and deployment of IT as a point of weakness, not a point of strength in their organizations. They think that the reason for this is often that IT is being driven from a technical perspective, not from a business perspective (Orlikowski & Iacono, 2000). This phenomenon exists because many businesspeople think that the IT is too complicated, too expensive, too risky and too changeable. They would not like to spend time on…...

unning Head: CAPSTONE POJECT 8CAPSTONE POJECTAbstractVirtual health care has offered sustenance during a universal health crisis with the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic. As COVID-19 continues spreading its arms and affecting thousands of people worldwide, healthcare providers increasingly utilize telemedicine to protect their staff and patients. This has become essential due to the golden rule that everybody is expected to follow, social distancing. The majority of healthcare providers have expanded telemedicine access since the beginning of the pandemic. Virtual health care has become a tool for screening and treating various illnesses and COVID-19 cases remotely and is facilitating visits that would be risky during these tough times. The transitory shifts have made way for an expansion of telemedicine. Telemedicine has ushered in a new era believed to be the next generation of healthcare delivery systems in the United States.

IT Governance.
The ambiguity in quantifying Information Technology's (IT's) business value, the lack of communication with the business side of the house, executives' limited understanding of and low respect for IT and IT staffers' inadequate business skills all contribute to an organization's inability to maximize their return on IT investments (Jeffery and Leliveld, 2004). IT management and governance is a discipline that is receiving lots of recent attention because it offers potential for removing many of these barriers to IT success. This paper discusses what IT management and governance is, why it is important, potential benefits, industry success rates, successful implementers, and vendor solutions. Despite potential pitfalls in organizations, surmounting these hurdles is necessary for companies to survive in an economically challenged and highly competitive environment. Just as companies manage all business processes via enterprise resource planning and other enterprise applications, businesses will begin to manage their IT operations and processes…...

River of Traps: The Power of ater
In the opening of River of Traps Jacobo Romero admonishes his neighbors (a couple of novice farmers who also happen to be the authors of this book) when they carelessly allow water to trickle to waste. "He [Romero] chided us relentlessly never to 'give holiday to the water,' but to put every drop to work." (DeBuys and Harris 11). This reverence for water is one of the focal points of Alex Harris' photography in River of Traps, a documentary of 80-year-old Romero, an Hispanic farmer who lived and worked in the Sangre de Cristo Mountains of northern New Mexico.

In fact, this connection to the land is one of the themes that flows through these photographs and is probably a cornerstone of southwestern art. According to essayist Michael Grant, "A connection to nature is the very theme of southwestern art" (156). However, it's the water…...

"From the junction of the East and West Forks the Trinity River continues southeast, forming all or part of the county lines between Kaufman and Ellis, Ellis and enderson, enderson and Navarro, Freestone and Anderson, Anderson and Leon, Leon and ouston, and ouston and Madison counties. It then cuts across northern Walker County to form a portion of the county line between Walker and Trinity counties and continues as the county line between Trinity and San Jacinto and Polk counties. At the northern line of Liberty County the Trinity turns almost directly south, cutting across Liberty and Chambers counties, to drain into Trinity Bay just west of Anahuac (at 29°45' N, 94°42' W)."
So it is easy to see how complicated any undertaking at revitalization of the river would be. The pollution that plagues the Trinity are not so unlike other rivers across the country that have been successfully revitalized;…...

railroad industrialized America, a Track That Unified a Nation
How the railroad industrialized America

In the nineteenth century, the railroad system of the United States of America came to life. The systems' sole purpose was to transport people and goods across the country. Railroad system in the country began on the East and moved westwards. The move to the west resulted in development of towns, which further made the system branch to meet other regions in the state. These resulted in a web like rail system over the country. These had an impact on the life, culture and the way of life for the people of America. The railroad system in America in the nineteenth century interconnected various societies. The railroad systems at that time decreased work time since people were able to travel easier. People were able to travel great distances with the invention of the railroad system.

In the nineteenth…...

CSR
Companies talk a lot about "corporate social responsibility," but quite frankly nobody really knows what the term means. Every company seems to interpret the idea a little bit differently. There is nothing inherently wrong with that, but it raises challenges for managers trying to understand the concept and what relevance it has to their organizations. The best approach has to be to analyze the different elements of CSR individually, and see how they apply. This approach also allows for the organization to integrate each element with its strategy -- trying to shoehorn a notoriously vague concept into strategy either results in it not really happening, or it happens but distracts the company from what it really wants to achieve.

The first part of this paper will explore the different conceptions of CSR. This is absolutely essential. The "social" is CSR is the key term, and it implies an external focus on…...

A comparative study on the theme of fascination with and repulsion from Otherness in Song of Kali by Dan Simmons and in the City of Joy by Dominique Lapierre

ABSACT

In this chapter, I examine similarities and differences between The City of Joy by Dominique Lapierre (1985) and Song of Kali by Dan Simmons (1985) with regard to the themes of the Western journalistic observer of the Oriental Other, and the fascination-repulsion that inspires the Occidental spatial imaginary of Calcutta. By comparing and contrasting these two popular novels, both describing white men's journey into the space of the Other, the chapter seeks to achieve a two-fold objective: (a) to provide insight into the authors with respect to alterity (otherness), and (b) to examine the discursive practices of these novels in terms of contrasting spatial metaphors of Calcutta as "The City of Dreadful Night" or "The City of Joy." The chapter…...
